Beneblog: Technology Meets Society

NOVEMBER 8, 2004

I just returned from Brazil yesterday: an exciting and meaningful trip that I'll talk about more later, I hope. Today I was at the beginning of the Microsoft Global Library Forum, and Bill Gates spoke to our (reasonably small) group.

The Schwab Foundation hosted a wrap up session on Sunday with twenty of the social entrepreneurs attending the Forum. We also agreed that we had to work harder at delivering our core common message that disadvantaged communities globally need much more than charitable handouts, they need access to the tools to help themselves.

An inclusive environment that cultivates engagement from a global community. We’ve since welcomed virtual Sprinters from 25+ countries around the globe, including Australia, Japan, Senegal, Ethiopia, and Brazil. With that in mind, Salesforce.org hosted its first “hybrid” Community Sprint in San Francisco. A Sprint to Remember.

Though the web is useful for connecting people around a single cause on a global scale, this support is often difficult to express offline. There were some complications with this, we didnt have enough ethnic avatars, so the Brazilian one was a blonde girl, as we knew there were also blonde girls in Brazil. How did you promote it?

It’s the week of the United Nations General Assembly and the Clinton Global Initiative. I spent one day with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, as they hosted an event for the Technology Partner Network (I’m one of a couple of hundred of tech advisors in the network). And much more… Washington, D.C.
